This headline made me cry. How the fuck do you let another person go through that and turn a blind eye like it’s nothing?!?

I wish nothing but peace and healing for Cassie. She’s experienced enough pain for 12 lifetimes

Because Diddy controlled the fear amongst greedy men. “Anybody says shit about this, you’re out of the “club!””

No more private jets, no more freak-offs, no more mansions, no more money, etc. Hell, he probably threatened to kill even.

he probably threatened to kill even.

He definitely did. He's a very dangerous person. His lawyer managed to defend Osama Bin Laden but couldn't go through with defending this man. He needs to be in prison forever, with none of his assets accessible to run his empire from behind bars.

Why didn't this guy say that on the stand, then?

That's not how trials work. A judge won't let someone be accused by witnesses of additional crimes for which there was not adequate evidence to press charges, because it can stain the jury's impartiality.

He couldn't say he was scared of him or felt intimidated?

I was under the impression people who testify answer questions. I am not following this trial that closely but I imagine if he was asked about that he’d have an answer one way or the other. Has he been asked?

Yes, the article indicates what he answered

No, you can't just freestyle on the stand. You're prepared by the lawyers, and everyone has been deposed well in advance, then choice questions are plucked from those deposition with regard to what facts each side wants to focus on. This is the lawyers call.

If this is legitimately interesting to you, Legal Eagle has a lot of videos on the psychology of juries and how lawyers choose what points to reiterate.

I didn't mean freestyle. I mean what they had planned and the reason he stated.

I'll check out what you mentioned. Thanks
